I wouldn't mind a clone if it's unique. For example I wouldn't mind a Premier Sky Rocket II as they're kinda like the Vekoma Boomerangs of today- albeit way better. Just heavily theme it and I'll endorse it.

I think they'd have to get permission from KI to drive down the stretch of road by the dorms since its their property which it where I feel the partnership would come in. I think if guests at the campground wanted to spend the extra money to park in the lot and not wait on a shuttle that's completely fine. I think its all about convenience. If you're a guest at the campground you'd have the option to either shuttle or drive yourself. Maybe the campground could factor in an additional $10 to each nightly stay. For example, a site would have an actual nightly rate of say $60 but they actually charge $70 to cover the cost to operate the "complimentary" shuttle. Maybe with that money they could pay KI to allow a shuttle on their stretch of Columbia Road.

That's my argument. If I'm shuttling in a 6 person family, I'll sacrifice the $20 parking fee.

Going back to the shuttle convo, I just realized Columbia Road goes right by where that huge campground is being built Maybe they could work out a partnership with the campground to shuttle their guests back and forth

A question every enthusiast asks, what'll be Cedar Point's next coaster? While I personally think the park needs to focus on other things such as infrastructure, a new roller coaster will always be the topic of conversation. The park has always been creative with their roller coaster placements and fitting them in tight spots only removing less popular thrill rides. The last time a coaster was sacrificed for another was Disaster Transport back in 2012. With that in mind, I personally don't see Cedar Point adding a new coaster without removing one. What coaster would be up for debate. Maybe they could work something out but they've been tight recently. Some speculations I've heard from fans are a GCI either replacing Wicked Twister as a boardwalk like Cyclone at Coney Island. I've also heard fans say a GCI could replace Cedar Creek Mine Ride. I've seen concepts for a B&M Flyer over Adventure Island as well. I've also heard talks of an RMC T-Rex and a S&S Axis coaster. What are your guy's most rational thoughts?

Make sure its green too

To be fair, I never saw Adventure Time as a Nickelodeon show. If it was, it wouldn't be the same in my opinion. Adventure Time appealed to a demographic that I don't think Nickelodeon was trying to target. I think it fit better in with Cartoon Network to be honest.

How bout no Now I gotta look and see what else I can get lucky on

Looking back at this I still can't believe I predicted that and how close it was. I couldn't have predicted what they did to the Killmart building though. Anyone got anything else they want me to predict?

I want to say it was in the 90s. Originally they had a blue consist and a green consist Mid America's #5 was acquired in the late 80s and that was green. I'd like to think they repainted both #5 and #9 at the same time. I don't really think of blue when I think of Africa. #601 showed up in the mid 90s and was painted to match #4s train.

When was #9 repainted red?

I might get banned for this but you've given him too much slack. There are people who have been fed up for a while with the blatant misinformation. I argue there are certain people who cry wolf just to get the attention. Look at all the arguments (aside from mine) that have flooded this thread. Meanwhile there is a website, that we're pretty much all familiar with by now, that's racking up the views and hits because their content is still popping up and being shared on this site. I made a logical argument about a shuttle. I provided a solid argument as to why I think it might be a shuttle, showed renderings (albeit basic) to support my argument and gave personal examples. What you don't see me arguing is whether I'm right no not. I could be dead wrong. Now the member (members I should say) are making vague claims with no logical argument. They provide pictures but very little context. Its the same thing we've encountered time and time again- "We just know. Everyone else is wrong. Etc etc." So many threads have gotten derailed. I've tried to be as civil and polite as I can possibly be. I try to hear people out and get their side but its getting old. There's blatant lies and inaccuracies that were never nipped in the bud and now they've blossomed into a vine that has snared the very idea of a decent discussion. People are using this site for their personal gain. I go on this site because the world is in a very dark place and this is the one place I can go to unwind and have fun with people who have similar interests with me. I don't want to see people making false statements just to promote themselves and their website. I can't even hit the ignore button anymore because so many people get triggered, (and rightfully so) that they respond to the offending member so we can still see what's going on. Like I've mentioned earlier this month, the park looks at this site, people on the internet look at this site, news reporters look at this site. If we continue to let all this false information plague our discussions then we're doing a disservice to ourselves and the people who I mentioned above.

Don't get me wrong I'd love to have one but I think people would make the connection eventually

I thought of that but two words prevent that: Flight Commander. I think what happened back in the early 90s with Flight Commander would turn the park away from something similar. Kinda like how I think Magic Mountain will never get a S&S 4d freespin.

"Come work at Kings Island where you can live in our new dorms but you have to walk nearly a mile to get to work. Oh also if you work a closing shift you have to walk that whole way back in the dark." I'm done arguing, its giving me a headache at this point.

@BeastForever I think there were some good shows like what you mentioned. It just seems like the network as a whole has changed from when I remember it. For example all they do is air Teen Titans Go episodes non-stop. When I was younger we used to have cartoon Friday's where they would debut all the new cartoons on Friday night. It was something to look forward to as a kid and it was a great way to start the weekend. This was the Cartoon Network that I grew up with. They took the time to animate bumpers that made it look like the characters were alive and had their own world. They didn't have to do it but it just showed the effort they put into their products.

Kings Island built dorms so they can have more employees, especially International Workers. International workers do not own cars let alone have American drivers licences. How do you expect them to get to work? You're not going to have them walk that whole way or expect them to carpool; the same goes for American employees who chose to leave their cars back home. Most colleges offer shuttles for their students because a good chunk of them live in dorms and aren't able to bring their cars. I'm not saying its confirmed that they are building a shuttle route but it doesn't seem out of the question. Not trying to sound rude or a know it all, I just don't understand why things that make sense are so quickly dismissed.

Yes but this conversation concerns the dorms and the employees who live in them. Not every employee has a car- especially international workers who don't even have an American drivers license which is why they need a shuttle. I worked with a guy up at CP who lived in Cleveland. He didn't have a car so I would drive him back to the dorms so he wouldn't have to wait on a shuttle.

But I'm talking about people who live in the dorms behind Great Wolf Lodge.

I thought it was to the left of HR which is a very short walk from the main gate.

But how exactly are KI employees blocked?

How so? Cedar Point's employees can enter off the main gate.
